Since I'm apparently Line Out's marquee alt-country whatever, I'll be posting impressions and reviews live from the No Depression Festival tomorrow. Used'ta be, the Austin City Limits Music Festival trafficked exclusively in the deliriously blurry line between country, folk, bluegrass, and rock, but ever since that event was co-opted by the guys who book Lollapalooza years ago, us pearl-snap-wearin' sad sacks have been plum outta luck. ACL's loss—Redmond in July has to be more tolerable than Austin in the dead of September.
Patterson Hood'll be on hand to play with a spin-off of Drive-By Truckers. Iron & Wine will appear with equal parts pretty songs and beards. And Gillian Welch will put on a great show until I rush the stage to profess my love. Just you watch.
